Expertise

Research in liberalisation reforms of the productive sectors as a part of poverty reduction strategies, specifically cotton sector reforms in West Africa (Benin). I look at the ways in which different elite groups are influenced by the reforms and vice versa, as well as on how reforms are perceived. I focus, among other things, on different elites' relations and networks. (Gender; southern Africa).
